Viceland - Huang’s World
Commissioned by VICELAND, we aided in the production of the season 2 finale of the original food and travel-based docuseries Huang’s World, in which Eddie Huang arrives in Dubai, the opulent heart of the United Arab Emirates, to explore how the city’s extreme wealth drives technology, culture and food, and to examine how new residents are diversifying Dubai.
Ten months before the shoot, we began scouring our sources and the vibrant city to identify potential contributors and locations for the episode and obtained the filming permits for these upon approval from the show’s director. We provided around-the-clock support to the team during their shoot here and ensured the success and quality of their production by catering to their various requirements.
Throughout the five day shoot, we provided two producers, two associate producers and five assistants, as well as one camera operator to act as an additional unit and one photographer to capture behind the scenes images.
The docuseries aired in August of 2017, and streamed to Viceland, a multinational brand of television channel owned by VICE Media with a vast and global audience.
